Roomscale|Locomotion System
Problem: Creating a seamless Virtual Reality experience without the need to "teleport" for the client to explore the entire space.
Solution: Scripted a system that allows you to use room-scale movement in tandem to using direction based locomotion to move beyond your physical bounds.
Outcome: Clients picked up quickly and naturally and had no motion-sickness experiencing the entire space.
Global Sliding Door
Problem: The level called for using the same sliding door throughout the space but physics handles could not be used.
Solution: Scripted a variety of functions within a blueprint to compare the correct variables between the motion controllers and the transformations of the door within the space.
Outcome: Replicated a real door opening experience within the VR space that clients picked up naturally.
Interactive Items
Problem: Demo felt flat without many things you could interact with and sound to set the setting.
Solution: Scripted physics objects interactions within the space including sound.
Outcome: Added an extra layer of depth to the setting it making it feel more immersive to clients.
Climb stairs in VR!
Problem: The space called for the ability to climb a set of steps.
Solution: Scripted a function within the character in tandem with my locomotion/room-scale to emulate the feeling of being on top of certain objects.
Outcome: This allowed clients to climb the steps and be able to have no boundaries when navigating the space.
